 Different ways to Buy train ticket in India online

Option 1 | Book through IRCTC

In the web of IRCTC, you can book as a resident in India or foreign tourists. If you book as a resident through your website, you need an Indian telephone number and an Indian credit card. 

The other possibility offered by the IRCTC website is to book tourist quota tickets using a different telephone number and any credit or debit card. You can book up to 6 tickets per month per person, for a maximum of 6 people.

The main benefit is that you can book tickets from your home 365 days in advance. The biggest drawback (in addition to the tourist quota's disadvantages) is that you have to pay 100 rupees plus taxes for using a foreign telephone, in addition to a fee of 200 rupees that they take out of the sleeve.

The few situations in which a full refund of a Tatkal ticket is permitted are:

Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) offer a ticket service that allows passengers to book tickets only one day before travel. Tatkal tickets can be booked online from the IRCTC website. All classes are allowed to book through Tatkal tickets except the first air conditioning class and executive class. Tatkal reservations start at 10 am for AC class and 11 am for non-AC class one day before the actual date of travel.

If you cancel your Tatkal ticket and it is confirmed, no refund will be given. However, on Indian Railways, a full refund will be given for cancellation of a tatkal ticket in some circumstances.

1) When the departure point is different from the boarding point of the passenger, and the train is delayed more than 3 hours at the departure point of the passenger, not at the boarding point.

2) The train must travel on a deviated route, and passengers are not willing to travel.

3) The train needs to go on a detour route and the boarding station or destination or both stations are not on the detour route.

5) Passengers are accommodated on lower class and do not want to travel. If the passenger travels in a lower class, the fare difference, and, if applicable, the difference in the tutoring fee will also be refunded.

6) If the tatkal ticket is on hold, the amount will be deducted, and the rest will be refunded to the customer. Partial cancellation of tatkal electronic tickets is allowed.

7) Also, if the train is cancelled due to an accident or flood, the ticket will be fully refunded if the ticket is cancelled within three days from the scheduled departure date.
